Throwing pine cones – this is how it works
A line is drawn on the forest floor with a stick. The children stand on this line after they have all taken off their shoes and stockings. Then the first child grabs a pin with their toes and throws it as far as they can. He stays there until everyone has thrown their cones. The winner is whoever gets the furthest with their cones.
